While I did like this book, it was super freaking wordy and there were far too many characters to really keep up with. So many different people and POVs it was hard to keep up with it all through audio, especially with the singular narrator. The story is pretty relatable and felt real when it comes to the way that small town criminal justice systems work. If you know the right people, you can get away with about anything. 

The audio quality was good but it definitely NEEDED multiple narrators to make it easier to keep up with. Half the time I wasn’t even sure who’s POV I was listening to and had to find context clues or rewind to find out. It’s the main reason for my lower rating actually. Keeping up with this book was hard work and it’s already pretty long. 

Thanks to NetGalley for the early access to the audio!
